Luxury Brands Boost March Auto Sales

can you say "T-A-K-E R-A-T-E"

Toyota's generous incentive program accomplished its mission with the automaker experiencing a 70% increase in unit sales from February. Additionally, a surge across the board in sales from luxury brands, like BMW (33%), Mercedes Benz (34%), Jaguar (57%), Land Rover (29%), Porsche (32%) and Lexus (28%), seems to indicate a willingness to not just buy, but spend money.

Assume that the party-of-the-first-part buys a small bag of warm, cinnamon-coated, cashews and eats approximately 1/3 of the bag before securely stowing the remainder for later consumption.

Then, assume that the party-of-the-second-part locates that securely stowed bag of warm, cinnamon-coated, cashews and consumes the remainder without party-of-the-first-part's consent.

Q: What is the take-rate?
A: 0.67 or 67% or 2/3's

Oh, okay I think I understand now. The party of the second part believes in sharing the wealth, yummy, warm cinnamon coated cashews. The party
of the first part believes in keeping those warm cinnamon covered cashews all to himself. No sharing for him!!

I believe the party of the second part deserved those cashews!
Don't you?
